Cecafa U20: What Samatta told me on the phone before Tanzania played Kenya – Kelvin John

Tanzania U20 captain Kelvin John has revealed the motivation which pushed them to defeat Kenya in the final of Cecafa in Uganda.

John, who emerged the top scorer of the tournament with six goals, says Belgium based star Mbwana Samatta gave them a call.

‘We have been talking regularly [with Samatta] and on several occasions, he said I should continue to fight for the team and the country since we have the duty to make sure our junior team excels in major competitions,” John is quoted by Daily News.
